THE FANTASY SLICE OF LIFE AU MEME

"Okay, you know how every RPG has the grand heroes chosen by fate to become wonderful friends and stand up to the evil sorcerer/empire/corporation/monster and keep it from destroying the world? This game is not about them."

It's not always about saving the day. For every fate-changing hero running around and saving the world, there's a hundred perfectly ordinary people living out perfectly ordinary lives.

Well, for a given definition of "ordinary" anyway.

This meme is basically just an excuse to play out characters living their lives in a nice, relaxed JRPG setting along the lines of the Atelier or Etrian Odyssey series. There's no hard setting details other than "low fantasy JRPG aesthetic" so feel free to go nuts with the details!

Just drop a toplevel below with some AU details for your character (you can even pick out a character class if you're really into that), tag around and LET'S DO THIS

Huh? You have? [He slows down, aware that not everyone's got his penchant for jogging everywhere.] I mean, why wouldn't you?

[He clears his throat, trying to find his metaphorical footing again. A girl is touching him. Whoa.

At first, Prompto was a little leery of Maya and her friends--not because Maya's scary, but because everyone knows the stories about that corner of town. But Maya's not scary, and she's really fun and sweet and not very witchlike at all.]

Doooo you have a job for me?

[missleadingquestions]

I-do!

[As she speaks, she taps him with her wristlet purse (which mostly just looks like a little velvet bag) in tandem with their footsteps for a second.]

Buuuut this time I have a super special request. Are you up for the challenge, mister Argentum?

[ > Accept vague and suspicious quest? ]

Uhh, well, that probably depends on what the challenge is.

[Nice try, Miss Fey.]

It's not something like letting you practice turning me into a frog, is it?
